Reply to comment by chazthetic in Just got our lease renewal numbers. For a 12 month lease renewal, our rent will increase over 10%. I don't see how this is sustainable long term. by chazthetic

Man idk, judging from all the comments I must be part of a very small minority who got extremely lucky. That said, of the 7 times we’ve signed or re-signed a lease, 3x were 2-year terms and most recent was a 14mo term. I guess that’s probably helped a lot.

I live across the street at 90 Columbus. We noticed there was a little draft coming through the bottom of our PTAC unit and got some adhesive foam strips to seal the edges and it helped. Running your heat in the 70s is really high.

Edit: This is what we bought Amazon link

Reply to ELI5: How come some commercials will mention the competition by name but others use generic terms like “leading brand”? by OmarBarksdale

Lots of confidently incorrect answers on here. When you specifically mention a competitor brand, you need to have legal proof of your claim, and that proof may need to be made publicly available to your competition which in turn may reveal trade secrets to them, e.g. the ingredient formula that allows you to make a claim that you have “better taste” or the brewing process that leads you to be “less filling.”

So it becomes a cost-benefit conversation. Is the proof behind your claim worth revealing to your competition?

Ok so hear me out. I’m not originally from Jersey or the Northeast. My native Jersey friends were hyping up Morristown for a long time. I finally went and I was like “this is it?” It was cool but I can’t imagine living there moving from out of state. It felt like just a suburb with a contained Main Street that has some lively bars.
